Ok this is a serious and objective review. I ordered the chicken wrap and five piece falafel…read moreThe wrap is a Lebanese Saj type flat bread, and the chicken is very moist and packed with flavour. Toppings were fresh and balanced. The whole thing has an authentic flavour that reminds me of early 90's middle eastern restaurants. I would give it a solid 4 out of 5. A 5 is not possible. There is no perfect wrap. This one is exceptional. The falafel was equally wonderful. Made with chick peas and not fava. Simply seasoned and fried to absolute perfection. Crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The tahini dipping sauce is complex with hints of mint (never had that in a tahini ever) very very nice. And asked for a garlic dipping sauce which was pretty standard but very nice. 4.5 out of 5 Overall this is a hidden gem in the world of Osmow's and Shawarma on every corner, this spot is a hit. Tucked back on Mountain across from Food Basics.

This is an amazing Mediterranean restaurant in St Catherine. The food is delicious; the service…read moredelightful and the portion sizes copious. You can also help yourself to cardamom coffee which was fantastic too. I ordered a chicken shawarma plate - it came with two choices of rice (mild or spicy), garlic potatoes, garlic sauce, hummus and a salad (many options - including chickpea salad, pasta salad, garden salad, spring mix etc) It was frequented by locals and many of them were in the first name basis with the owner/staff which goes a long way to say that they take care of their customers well. They are also Reader's choice awards - Diamond winner in 2022. Please do visit them if/when you're craving shawarma in St Catherine.

It's About Time is Lebanese food with specialties from Beirut. It's a store front restaurant with…read morea pretty spartan interior. Most of their business is take out although there is room for maybe four people to sit at two counters. The owner was super friendly and accommodating. I asked him to make me a vegetarian plate of mixed salads and falafel while I moved my car. (The lot behind the restaurant doesn't belong to them and you'll get towed!) The pita, humus, babaganoush, papas bravos, and pickled turnips were very good. The standouts: 1. the lightest, airiest falafel I've ever had. If I knew felafel could be this good, I'd order it more often. 2. Rice with cardamum pods. Why have I never had cardmum in rice before? I've eaten at literally dozens of Middle Eastern restaurants, and this was a first. It was a new taste and absolutely raised the bar on the rice. Finally It's about Thyme was a bargain. I think I paid C$15 for an overflowing plate of food plus a bottle of water. The portion was so generous that I took it home and ate the leftovers for lunch the following day. And here's a lagniappe: the restaurant is across the street from the Salem Chapel British Methodist Episcopal Church where Harriet Tubman was a member. St. Catherarines, Ontario was one of the end points for the Underground Railroad.

We tried the falafel, chicken shawarma, beef shawarma, hummus, babagnoush, tabbouleh, fattoush and pickled things. It was SO GOOD. Authentic full flavours - Spiced to perfection. The falafels were light and soft. The meats were spiced so nicely. We stuffed ourselves and had leftovers - the portions are generous. We will absolutely go back and recommend to anyone looking for good middle eastern food in the area.

Chicken shwarma plate and falafel plate were very flavourful and generous (enough for lunch the next day). Falafel sandwich was huge too but my son somehow managed to devour the whole thing. Owners were lovely and we were offered stuffed grape leaves and beef to try while waiting (those were delish too). We'll definitely be back. Location is especially convenient in the summer as it's right on the way to the parks and baseball fields along lakefront promenade.

On this occasion, we got the gyro sandwich and the beef shawarma sandwich. Decent amount of gyro but definitely looks commercially made and reheated. Flavor is good. Toppings were fresh and sauces/hummus were tasty. Beef shawarma was a bit on the dry side but stil decently good flavor. The shawarma are okay sized, not super filled but decently filled. I do feel like it would take 1.5 sandwiches to satisfy me for lunch. Price: Pretty cheap if you buy 2 or 3 so bring someone to share with you!

It's some of my favourite hummus ever, and the fresh beef along with pine nuts and other things means I always come back for this. It should be noted that they offer breakfast (on weekends at least). It's Palestinian, so you shouldn't expect a typical Western breakfast (obviously), but it looks really good and it's quite popular. FWIW, I hear a lot of what I assume is Arabic from most clientele, so probably a case where it is vouched for by 'locals'. Next time, I'll try to upload a pic of the food.

Every time I place it an order it can be quite tedious and annoying. I was ordering for no less than 5 people each time and different modifications can be excessive. However, every single time it's perfect. There's not an item that is missed or left out. I'm not sure if this has always been the standard but things are separated nice and neat. The attention to detail was quite astonishing. They really go above and beyond with how everything is packaged. Last night was great. The staff is super friendly and kind. I really appreciate them. When I pick up my order it's always ready before the pick up time. I really appreciate the customer service. Also the food is amazing. Everything is so full of flavor. I always get The Open as a salad and get all the fixings on it. It's so good my fiancé makes me get the same exact order for him. Last night it was so much he couldn't even finish it. He was so happy eating lol!! I really like this place and I will be returning for sure!!
